Suisun City Restaurant Worker Attacked At Dumpster

A female employee was attacked outside of a restaurant in Suisun City on Monday night, police said. The victim was putting trash in a Dumpster outside of the restaurant in the Sunset Center at 135 Sunset Ave. around 10:25 p.m., police Sgt. Daniel Healy said.

The employee heard a noise near the Dumpster but didn’t pay it any attention, but when she returned a short time later to dump cardboard, the suspect grabbed her from behind and tried to remove her pants, Healy said.

The employee kicked the attacker away but the suspect forced her against a cinder block wall, causing injuries to her head.

The employee then activated her drive-thru headset and screamed for help, Healy said. A co-worker ran to the Dumpster and saw the suspect flee through the parking lot.

The victim was treated at the scene and then taken to a hospital, according to Healy.

Anyone who was in the area of the Sunset Center between 10:15 and 10:40 p.m. Monday is asked to call Suisun City police at (707) 421-7373.
